This is a great story of love. My heart breaks for those who loved her.
This is really sad. She was a good singer and person. RIP.
She is singing with angels around the throne of God.

RIP beautiful lady
The blog her husband wrote is heartbreaking..
There’s no way this lady left this earth without leaving a lot of broken hearts behind...God bless them in their healing process.
The good die young, while the evil live on seemingly forever.
